Search the new 'test' version of PILOT, the Library Catalog

What is VuFind? VuFind is a new, user-friendly library resource portal, designed and developed for libraries by libraries. It provides features that make searching for books and other library resources easier and more fun to do, like the following:

clear, easy-to-read records with book covers

easy-to-apply filters, for topic, format, language, date, genre and more

capability to send a record by email or by text message

capability to export a record to RefWorks or EndNote Web

'Cite This' feature for each resource, in both APA and MLA style

Coming soon will be 'shopping cart' features and the ability to tag and share records, so stay tuned!
